Displaying and Setting System Log (Syslog) Options
HP-AM456-9002A Rev 01
The Memory Array logs system messages that can be sent to a host running a
syslog server for long term storage. If numerous messages are generated, then
the log buffer may fill up and, since it is a circular buffer, overwrite older
messages. The message level mapping between the message level definitions
and your host's syslog message level definitions are listed in
man page for syslog.conf on the host for more information.

WARNING

FATAL
When syslog messages are received on the host, they are written to whatever
logging device is configured. Frequently, this means that warn messages are
written to a file, such as /var/log/messages or /var/adm/messages,
and emerg level messages are written to all root consoles. On the Memory
Array, messages that are set to the WARNING, ERROR, or FATAL level are sent
to the host.
